WELCOME, Everyone!!
Let's start this off.
In June of 2003 I went to the dealership to buy a Protege 5. As i had limited credit at the time, i could only get this<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c91/Boostdprotegelx/The%20Protege%20Story/originalpro.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a>
although, i wasn't complaining. It was my first car and I loved it.
Shortly after getting it i got antsy and wanted to add something extra to it, so, i went and painted the interior.Didn't looks so great, but, what can you do.
Shortly after, i wanted new s*** for the car, so i sent it to a body shop to get some work done. I wanted to get this stuff done, 4 racing seats, new clutch/flywheel/molded body kit, etc. here's the seats<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c91/Boostdprotegelx/The%20Protege%20Story/seatsinside.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a>
they got stolen there, and this is what the body looked like afterwords.<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c91/Boostdprotegelx/The%20Protege%20Story/misc008.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a>..so, with a screwed up body, and stolen seats, the shop closed down, and i got nothing. i got my car back, and installed these guages, and floor mats.<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c91/Boostdprotegelx/The%20Protege%20Story/interior.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a>.. my body kit came in the mail, so i put that on myself. turned out ok,<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c91/Boostdprotegelx/The%20Protege%20Story/frontview.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a>..i spray painted the car flat black, because i got into trouble with the cops, and i couldn't let them see me driving around with a blue door and a white body kit...anyways, next would be my wing. I ordered a Scorcher 3 wing from my parts guy, and installed it, painted that flat black as well. car began looking like s***.<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c91/Boostdprotegelx/The%20Protege%20Story/angleback2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a>..wanted lambos, installed them...<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c91/Boostdprotegelx/The%20Protege%20Story/driverlambosmall.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a>a picture of the motor before we did the msp swap. i needed more power.!!!!!no mods what so ever.
